Deprivation of the right to food in Awash Fantale Worada attributed to the government policy, which is not inclusive, particularly the reluctance the government shows to have pastoralist policy and strategy. Furthermore there are also some legal constraints contributed to the limitation of access to food in the worada for instance the land proclamation neglects the constitutional right of pastoralists not to evicted from grazing land. Negligence to give attention to the people while carrying out large scale infrastructural projects and commercial irrigation projects. Eviction from the ancestral lands for the sake of commercial crops like sugar cane production which leads to scramble of grazing land and water makes part of the challenge to access food in the worada. | |
